He thinks I'm enough!

::via pinterest::

But sometimes, especially lately, I don't feel like enough. 

I'm not a good enough wife or mother.
I'm not a good enough friend.
I'm not good enough for this person or that person...

I'm not a good enough writer or photographer.
I'm not a good enough blogger. 

I don't read my Bible enough or pray enough, so I'm not spiritual enough. 

I'm not thin enough
Or pretty enough. 

The list goes on and on and on. 

The truth is, I probably won't ever FEEL like enough, but I need to put those feelings aside because those feelings aren't the TRUTH. In this world, I will never be enough. Everywhere I turn something is telling me I'm not. I will never live up to the worlds standards of being enough, but I don't want to! I want to live up to God's standards. 

In God's eyes I am enough. How freeing is that? 
No matter what... God loves me and I am enough to Him. 
I don't have to DO MORE to be enough.
Yes, I should work on things... and He helps me with that, is there with me through it all,
But I do not have to do more or be more to receive His love.

He loves me just the way I am. 

Lord, I thank You for reminding me that I am enough to YOU.
Thank You for being enough for me as well.
